A successful student is one that has a clear understanding of what
he/she wants to accomplish for any given task. One way of
accomplishing this is to set long and short-term goals that address
studying, test-taking, and grades. Being able to plan, implement,
monitor, evaluate and reassess the stated goal is key to effective
goal setting.
Five Elements Necessary When Setting Useful Goals
- Is the goal specific?
Does the goal completely describe what you want to accomplish?
- Is the goal measurable?
Can the goal be clearly evaluated?
- Is the goal challenging?
Does the goal require effort and discipline?
- Is the goal realistic?
Can the goal be attained?
- Is there a stated completion date?
